my favorite part of the bible is when jesus, instead of telling women how to dress, tells men to gouge out their eyes and cut off their hands if they’re not capable of controlling themselves.
To every woman
I pray you make your own money,
Do not be at the mercy of anyone.
Because sadly, without a doubt,
No matter how good it is,
A man with the power to kick you out or starve you,
Will likely do it one day.
Stand on your own feet.
Your independence is your freedom.
Men mistakenly think that a woman's greatest fear is loneliness. You're 100% wrong. Her greatest fear is getting married, having children, becoming a domestic servant, living a boring and miserable life with a worthless husband, and realizing she wasted her time with you. She wants a life filled with purpose, growth, and genuine happiness on her own terms. The real fear is losing herself in a life that was never truly hers to begin with.
One sermon I find extremely annoying and unfair during weddings is the “your husband is your first child” sermon, please stop it.
Two people are leaving their parents to come together and build a life, to start a family, they are both entering unfamiliar grounds where they will learn, unlearn and relearn a lot of thing and one person automatically has a first child?
This same man that is on most occasions older than her, he is expected to head the home and she is expected to submit to him but he is her first child? How do you submit to your child then?
So many of the preachings don’t go down well with me but this one takes the lead
I think we should adopt some grandma habits, knitting, tea hours, midday naps, baking goods, reading on a rocking chair, puzzles, and taking like slowly.
Nobody prepares you for the fact that you will go through some of the most heart shattering experiences of your life and are still expected to show up for work. Take care of yourself. Pay your bills. Meet your goals. Just carry on… it’s awful
so if a man works, he’s suddenly ‘too tired’ to do chores, but when a woman works, she’s still supposed to cook, clean, and handle everything else? why? how does that add up?
